It’s a few knobs, easy to operate, and gets the job done.

I really enjoy dirting up strings and acoustic instruments with Lo-Fi as well. Lo-Fi is used to taper off and or tame harsh sounds. I use Crusher to bring out harmonics in baselines and synthesizers handling low-frequency information within the music. Distortion FxĪll five of these Distortion units are great but I’m really favoring The Crusher and the Lo-Fi units. I like using the Tone Control to shape my main instruments and the SVT on bass (808s, Synths, Guitar) for a little edge, don’t ask me why, it just does the job and I love the results.

My two favorites (currently) are ‘Tone Control’ and the ‘SVT Classic’ (Ampeg emulation). They do what they’re supposed to do and they sound very good.

Many of the amps are based on known brands like Mesa Boogie, Roland, Fender, and some others. Let’s talk about some of my favorite units within each section and how I use them. That’s a lot of FX right there, more than enough. This is broken down as such.ģ Channel Strips, 5 Distortion units, 9 Amps, 10 Filters, 17 Modulation Fx, 9 Reverb Units, 4 EQs, 7 Dynamic Units, 3 Saturation Units, and 3 Delays. There is a total of 70 units derived from IK Multimedia’s T-Racks, AmpliTube, Sampletank as well as a few units that they’ve newly created. MixBox is a lovely 500 series lunchbox styled channel strip that comes with

What’s Missing/ What I’d Like To See Added To Mixbox.

So, I figured it was only a matter of time before IK jumped onboard. I know many who purchased Mix Rack mostly based on the look and sound second, then we have PSP who took on the same look. Slate Digital went this route, a lot of people gravitated toward that look. I already know this question is coming -> “if I have T-Racks do I need MixBox?” and vice-versa… just hang in there, we’ll get to that.Īs with anyone who is an IK Multimedia fan, I was super excited about this release as I made an Instagram post not long before the announcement of MixBox asking them when they were going to release a 500 series styled look to the plugins. I’d like to give you my perspective of MixBox as a music producer/composer as well as an owner of T-Racks. They’ve released several products, both hardware, and software and they stay active on Instagram Live putting out tons of good information and music-making tips. Look, IK Multimedia has been heavy on their game this year. IK Multimedia MixBox!! You didn’t think we’d go without reviewing this, did you?
